The technology is interesting, but the title is misleading at best. The water is still boiling, but only a small fraction of the volume needs to be at the boiling point. The tidbit about "cheap and abundant source of steam" is totally uncalled for. Unless you're changing the heat of vaporization of water, you will always get the same amount of steam for the same amount of energy input.

I understood this as improving the efficiency of creating steam, though unfortunately they didn't say how much more efficient it is.
